Chapter 1211: Chapter 430: Two Emperors Enter the Southern Continent_2

Especially regarding the Escape Technique.

…

Frustrating.

Zhao Gongming had never felt so frustrated, facing these gods of the Southern Continent’s divine court. He couldn’t fight, couldn’t kill; the opponent’s strength was evidently not very strong, yet they could command the power of the Heavenly Dao to continuously rain down divine retributions on them.

If they each didn’t have some protection from Heavenly Dao’s merits, they would have already capsized their boats and been left here by divine punishment.

Zhao Gongming looked up at the giant shield wielded by Guilingling, furrowing his brows in deep thought, trying to find a way to escape.

The Great Turtle Shield lay amidst a frozen lake, bearing the brunt of divine wrath’s thunderbolts;

Every time these pitch-black thunderbolts struck down, the giant shield would tremble lightly, and Guilingling’s pale face would become even more ashen.

The situation of the few masters nearby wasn’t very good either.

Immortal Taiyi’s vermilion Daoist robe was stained with charred black, and the lips that were precisely struck by the divine wrath thunderbolt were also a bit scorched.

Immortal Yuding was the least injured, currently wielding a small cauldron, pouring his immortal power into it, converting it into pure spiritual energy, and sharing this energy with Immortal Taiyi and Guilingling for healing.

Qing Su’s left arm was enveloped by Ice Blue Immortal Light; previously struck continuously by divine wrath thunderbolts, her injuries were the most severe, and her Dao Realm was faintly falling.

Qiongxiao Celestial Maiden and the two elderly women from Holy Mother Palace were slightly less injured, and were ready to temporarily hold off the divine wrath once the Great Turtle Shell could no longer withstand it.

Zhao Gongming’s Sea-Calming Treasure Beads were now covered with a layer of dark light, having been struck by the divine wrath thunderbolt once, and could not be used momentarily.

This divine wrath thunderbolt was just as potent as the divine punishment outside…

Recalling the events of the past hour, Zhao Gongming could only smile bitterly.

Initially, they did not take this so-called divine court seriously.

In essence, this divine court was born from the incense wishes of the masses, these gods had little actual power, many were gods formed from mortal rulers after death.

The strength of the gods here was at most equivalent to the realm of the Golden Immortal;

Even if there were a few powerful generals, their combat strength only matched that of Great One Golden Immortals without innate spiritual treasures.

Only a few old Divine Kings were troublesome, but even they were not at the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal.

With that strength and skill, why would they give them a second thought?

Thus, Qing Su, Guilingling, and Qiong Xiao wanted to rescue these Demon Infants, to see if they could take them out for aid. Zhao Gongming allowed them, not intervening much.

That’s just how female immortals are, most have softer hearts.

The four ‘Descending Gods’ enshrined in the divine court gods quickly returned, attacking Zhao Gongming decisively.

Zhao Gongming didn’t hold back either, flinging four Treasure Beads to immobilize them.

At this moment, he did not intend to kill.

The two old women from Holy Mother Palace kept speaking, mentioning how the divine court is connected with the entire Southern Continent, that attacking the divine court would trigger widespread calamity, and so on.

But once these four gods were immobilized, more than a dozen divine lights flew out from the clouds, transforming into divine court warriors, launching a siege against Zhao Gongming and the others.

To call it a siege was slightly misleading;

It’s more like a moth flying into fire.

In fierce battle, Zhao Gongming’s group consistently refrained from attacking, mostly only defending, allowing several female immortals to continue rescuing Demon Infants and investigating their origins.

Unexpectedly, these divine court gods relentlessly chased them, adding reinforcements when they couldn’t succeed.

When dozens of gods acted in unison yet couldn’t shake Zhao Gongming’s Sea-Calming Treasure Beads, the Divine King of the court was infuriated, and pitch-black thunderbolts rained down from the sky.

Zhao Gongming’s Sea-Calming Treasure Beads were immediately heavily struck, several beads temporarily sealed.

Zhao Gongming’s anger surged, grabbing his Suppressing Dragon Whip and casually flinging it towards a divine court warrior ahead.

The divine court warrior screamed, unable to dodge, and after a few cries, his body exploded into fireworks.

Zhao Gongming intended to showcase his strength, hoping these gods would recognize their disadvantage and retreat.

Yet unexpectedly…

Just as the god’s body shattered, the southeastern corner of the Southern Continent trembled, and in the epicenter of this tremor, two major cities suffered at least tens of thousands of deaths and injuries.

Subsequently, earth fire surged, and tsunamis overturned.

A huge mass of karmic debt fell on Zhao Gongming’s head.

Zhao Gongming couldn’t understand but dared not act recklessly; seeing this, the group of immortals was shocked, not expecting that killing divine court gods would indeed induce natural disasters.

More divine wrath thunderbolts descended from the divine court, forcing the immortals to abandon rescuing the Demon Infants and focus on defending against the thunder, each sustaining injuries. It was already too late to retreat as the divine wrath thunderbolts sealed off all their escape routes.

How could this succeed?

Even if their strength was formidable and their mana abundant, enduring too many divine wrath thunderbolts might threaten their lives.

Zhao Gongming slapped his thigh, a touch of grim determination in his eyes.

He said: “In a moment, I’ll act to seal this divine court and leave this place first.”

“Brother, you mustn’t,” Qiongxiao Celestial Maiden solemnly said, “just killing a minor god adds so much karma to you; if you forcibly attack the divine court, you’ll truly be entangled in karmic debt.”

“That is still better than all of us being trapped here!”

Zhao Gongming frowned:

“I’ve made up my mind, don’t try to dissuade me. At worst, I’ll hide in the Chaos Sea to avoid the ensuing disaster.”

Qing Su finished her meditation, opened her eyes, which glowed with dazzling Ice Blue Immortal Light.

‘This divine court is a threat to the Heavenly Court; if my disciple comes here, he might also be constrained everywhere. It might be better to see if it can be destroyed to spare him the karmic burden.’

Qing Su raised the Sword Box and softly said: “Soon, I’ll make an attack on the divine court.”

“Absolutely not,” one of the elderly women from Holy Mother Palace quickly said, “a disaster has already been brewed, if you act again, it may truly lead to a massacre.”
